Description:

This World War II A-2 flight jacket was manufactured by Cable Raincoat Co. (unsigned label with contract no. W535 AC-27753), is a size 40, and has a Conmar zipper. The lining of the jacket is hand marked “NCC” near the maker’s label. The shoulders have wonderful in theater made multi-piece leather insignia: CBI patch on the left and USAAF patch on the right. Unfortunately, the name tag has been removed from the left chest. The back of the jacket features a fantastic multi-piece leather blood chit. Includes a translation of the blood chit, eight separate service medal ribbons, U.S. Army enlisted service cap insignia, and sterling silver aircrew wing (pin back).

Rating Definition:

Good for an A-2 flight jacket that saw heavy use in the CBI Theater, displaying an attractive worn patina on the leather. A survivor of the CBI Theater with great multi-piece leather insignia and famed blood chit.
